I am stuck on this problem and appreciate any help. Thanks
The speed of a moving bullet can be determined by allowing the bullet to pass through two rotating paper disks mounted a distance d apart on the same axle From the angular displacement Δθ of the two bullet holes in the disks and the rotational speed of the disks, we can determine the speed v of the bullet. Find the bullet speed for the following data: d = 90 cm, ω = 950 rev/min, and Δθ = 31.0°. Grow Inline Speed:: Want to see skating? Heres a video of indoor. And outdoor.

The paper disks rotated 31 degrees in the time between when the bullet went through the first disk to when it went through the second disk.

The disks were rotating at 950 revolutions per minute, convert this to degrees per second
950 rev/min x 360 deg/rev / 60 seconds/min = 5700 deg/sec
if something traveled 31 degrees at a rate of 5700 deg/sec, then it took
31/5700 = 0.00544 seconds between when the bullet hit the first disk to when it hit the second disk Westcom Broadband High-Speed Internet - Ravensdale, Buckley, Orting :: No High-Speed Internet in your Area or Community?

The bullet traveled 90cm which is 0.9 meters in 0.00544 seconds
0.9/0.00544 = 165.5 m/s
